Aristotle said that education should be designed to make us virtuous. It seems that modern higher education is specifically aimed at doing the opposite, which often makes college worse than pointless.
Please understand this: college will not become cheaper, employers will not stop erecting irrelevant barriers to entry, schools will not stop pushing kids in one direction regardless of their unique skills and abilities, and nothing else will get better with any of this until we stop participating in the charade.
We are truly a society of impotent and hopeless sheep if we continue to bankrupt ourselves and our children on a massively overpriced college education just because “it’s what people do.”
It’s only what people do because people do it. Stop Doing it!
Boycott college. Free yourselves. Free your children. Make your own life. Teach your kids to live differently, uniquely, individually. College is not necessary for most of us. I think it’s time we stop pretending otherwise. Now go forth and spread the word. Godspeed.
